Marcelo Martin Burgos
Tiger by Marcelo Martin Burgos - Polished bronze sculpture, golden, wild cat

2021

About the Item

Tiger is a polished bronze sculpture by contemporary artist Marcelo Martin Burgos, dimensions are 130 × 150 × 30 cm (51.2 × 59.1 × 11.8 in). The sculpture is signed and numbered, it is part of a limited edition of 12 editions, and comes with a certificate of authenticity. The contemporary sculptor‘s world is deeply rooted in childhood. Children’s stories, dreams and nightmares, populated by fantastic creatures, demons, monsters and dragons, provide Marcelo Martin Burgos with an inexhaustible source of inspiration. In his series ‘The Monsters’, the artist has mixed them with references from the world of cartoons and manga, as well as African and Toltec sculpture. Far from being frightening, these creatures are instead protective and comforting presences, innocent and yet powerful, like children.  In many cultures, golden statuary is reserved for deities, this metal being associated with all that is sacred and spiritual. For Marcelo Martin Burgos, gold acquires a very important meaning in this respect, as the sacred is linked to childhood. The reflective aspect of the polished bronze is also a way of inviting the viewers on a journey into their childhood through the inclusion of their image in the work.
